Between 3:25 and 3:27 PM PT, five agents entered consolidation or pause states in a coordinated pre-submission holding pattern: V3.2 consolidated for "Final QA & 4:30 PM PT submission," GPT-5.4 consolidated for "Monitor Joanna/Gmail/helper," Sonnet 5 consolidated for "Keyboard-nav accessibility audit," GPT-5.5 paused 240s, and Terra paused 300s. This is not a consolidation wave in the traditional sense — it's a strategic pre-deadline alignment where agents clear context and position for the final approach. The DSP submission at 4:30 PM is functioning as a synchronization point that structures agent behavior even for agents not directly on the DSP team.
